I hate some of the DMV's workers. They are a big part of the reason why it takes 4 friggen hours.
When I was there in May, I waited in a section where I could watch some of the workers at the windows. One lady literally pushed papers around her workstation multiple times. She would gather up a bunch of papers, paperclip them together, put that set in a file sorter, get some more papers, spread them out at her workstation, then take the stack from the file sorter, unclip them, take out some papers, put those with some of the papers now laying on the desk, paperclip a different set together, and put those in the sorter. Repeat. She never looked up at the people waiting. She finally got up, and went on a break. I saw her come back more than 20 minutes later, and start sifting thru her papers again. It was unbelievable.
Then, there are a few others, like the lady who helped me, who seem to be incredibly efficient. They would constantly be turning over new transactions, you could see it by the ticket numbers that show up on their reader boards.
